writercises | EXERCISE: a superhero and ...

Original Posting May 27, 2016

Okay, here's one of those fan fic superhero thingies.

Start by picking a superhero. You know, one of those guys with an iron suit, or maybe somebody with a cape? How about an immortal who flies an invisible plane? Or even one of the X-kiddies? Anybody you like...

Now, pick a number from one to six. Here is what you have chosen:

1. Kitten
2. Baby
3. Puppy
4. Five-year-old child
5. Fledgling penguin
6. An aging woman (or man) who isn't quite tracking mentally

Now, your superhero has found this bundle of joy, perhaps left on the doorstep of their fortress of solitude (or reasonable facsimile) or on the outskirts of the last battleground or somewhere else. They need care! So, being the sterling people with a heart of gold that every good superhero must be, they set out to take care of them.

Tell us that story! How did the superhero acquire their little buddy, how does their time together work out, and... Well, what happens then?

Write!
